Tyler Technologies and the State of Nebraska Contract for Mass Appraisal Software
DALLAS - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Tyler Technologies (NYSE: TYL) has reached an agreement with the state
of Nebraska to provide Tyler's Orion property assessment software
solution. The contract is valued at $2.3 million and includes software
licenses, support and maintenance for the counties of Dakota, Dodge,
Garfield, Greeley, Harlan, Hitchcock, Keith, and Saunders.
Five years ago, the Property Assessment Division of the Nebraska
Department of Revenue started the bid process for a new
computer-assisted mass appraisal (CAMA) software system that was robust,
configurable and could meet the needs of all eight counties. Tyler
Technologies was chosen after receiving the most points in the
competitive bid process.
"Tyler's Orion solution offers the most functionality, such as parcel
searching via the Internet, for a reasonable cost," said Property Tax
Administrator Ruth Sorensen. "Orion will help the state manage multiple
requirements and wants of the counties while delivering advanced
functionality and simplifying tasks. This partnership will benefit the
counties contracting through the state for the system since the state
will provide the software and system backups, as well as host the
server."
Tyler's Orion Appraisal solution is a browser-based application that
allows users to quickly and easily track, modify and add detailed
property and party information through two comprehensive record types.
Orion is designed to streamline repetitive tasks, maximize efficiencies
and organize complex data into useful information that is configurable
to the needs of appraisal offices.
"Nebraska is one of a growing number of states looking for greater
efficiencies by serving multiple jurisdictions with a single solution,
and we are delighted to provide the solution," said Andrew D. Teed,
president of Tyler's Appraisal & Tax Division. "Orion is positioned to
serve appraisal, tax and collections offices of all sizes, bringing new
technology and functionality to clients. We value the relationships
we've developed together with our clients, and we look forward to
building a similar relationship with the state of Nebraska."
